Summary
There were many things that Linebeck had difficulty understanding, one of those things being Link. To be more specific, he didn't understand why Link spent so much time sitting in front of that statue they had found on the Ghost Ship. It was beginning to frustrate him, like everything else he had trouble understanding, but at least he could try and ask and figure it out.

Summary
"I can't ask this of you."
"You already have." Goumang released Lady Ethereal's bloodied hands and stood. "It's not much to ask, really. I make the very air we breathe. Compared to that, a bit of extra guidance for a colleague is nothing."
"You would do that? Truly?"
"It's nothing." Goumang loathed repeating herself, but she'd allow the exception. She smiled, tilting her head back. "Just don't expect me to be kind about it."
The scratches wept red down Lady Ethereal's chest. "I wouldn't want you to be."

Summary
A day has passed since Tenna settled into life with Mettaton- watched and appreciated, he's very hesitantly happy with this new, shaky life.
That is, until two certain kids get a little too curious, making the Knight have to set an example- or, perhaps, cause a distraction?
Originally a supposed murder attempt, Tenna can now walk around in the Light World, able to switch between ordinary TV and monster. Now he has to actually put the work into acting like a person, sorting through his trauma, and getting to know his new roommate. When characters from his past start making things more complicated, will he be able to handle the pressure? Or will he shatter for a third time?

Summary
There are certain experiences that one can share with another in that both will come out completely and permanently changed on the other side. One such experience is the sudden and traumatic loss of nearly everything one has ever known and loved.
When Twilight and Bulblins fell on Kakariko village, most didn't survive. Renado and Barnes had each other to lean on, and it was only inevitable that they grow closer. This causes Renado to rethink a lot of the troubled relationships in his life and how he can work to make them better.

This ship started as a joke with a friend and it isn't funny anymore. It is serious.
